Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Recognition of Georgia Piedmont Wikimedians
To: wikimedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Dear all,
I am honoured to announce, on behalf of the Affiliations Committee, the
recognition of a new Wikimedia User Group in the US: Georgia Piedmont
Wikimedians [1]
Among their goals are continuing to organize meetups of wikimedians in the
region (they have been doing it informally for a few years already) and
other activities like edit-a-thons, photo-hunts in Atlanta and other areas,
and collaborating with other organizations.
Welcome to the family!

Hi all,
I have good news. We had recently submitted a user group application to be
registered as an official Wikimedia community user group. I wanted to
report that the application has been accepted yesterday by the Affiliations
committee and the official announcement will get posted within in a day or
two on the wikimedia-l mailing list.
The community user group will allow us to receive funding from Wikimedia to
provide outreach and assistance to non-Wikimedian organizations,
edit-a-thons, and other events in the Georgia Piedmont region.
If you would like to learn more about the user group, please visit the
following page on Meta,

I would really appreciate it if you can add yourself to the Supporters list
on the page so that we can contact you in the future.
Thanks,
Ganesh
